I Know it’s you Emma! Hope you are well! I haven’t actually read it due to a broken shoulder! but the chap who blogged about it, I’d trust his opinion, so I wasn’t a mile away then! I know of a couple of others in the pipeline, but they haven’t published yet, so I’ll let you know when they do. No connection to me, but i’ve seen previews. Just spreading the word!! Take care, Jon

I receive books for review from the same press, Gallic Press, one I just reviewed, and another one I will post about only 1 week before publication date.

Hi guys, congratulations on the year! The following was recommended to me by a respected local publisher, Roger Jones, of Ex Libris in Wiltshire, UK. ‘The President’s Hat’, a short novel from France by Antoine Laurain. Hope it’s of interest!
